Created by Sovereign Order 7253 of 14 December 2018, Prince Albert Commemoration Committee I is responsible for the study and the organisation of events planned to celebrate the life and work of Prince Albert I, between 2019, year of the centenary of the creation of the International Commission for the Scientific Exploration of the Mediterranean Sea, and 2022, year of the centenary of its disappearance.

Under the chairmanship of HE Mr. Robert Fillon, the Executive Committee will work towards the implementation of the programme and the implementation of the events.

In his speech, HSH the Sovereign Prince emphasised: “I am convinced that a good celebration of the work of Prince Albert I st can be that like this: varied in form as in It should be addressed to different audiences: the academic world, the curious of the history of science, international relations, pacifist militancy, and all those who are interested in the Principality to another, not to mention the students and students of our schools, and of course I expect them to use the most modern production and distribution techniques, without abandoning the traditional media when they become better adapted.”

The Minister of State spoke at a breakfast with the press, about the Prince’s Government’s policy on energy transition.

He was surrounded by Marie-Pierre Gramaglia, Government Counselor-Minister of Equipment, Environment and Urbanism, and Annabelle Jaeger-Seydoux, Director of the Mission for the Energy Transition (MTE).

Serge Telle spoke about the issues relating to climate change: “They are extraordinarily difficult to grasp, the commitment must be both individual and societal, and the National Pact gives the people and businesses the ability to contribute, to their MTE’s role is to coordinate all public policies, because there is no political decision that has no impact on ecology. Your mission, Annabelle Jaeger-Seydoux, is to make coherent, at the national level, the commitments that the Sovereign takes on the international level.”

Marie-Pierre Gramaglia then recalled the main thrusts of her biodiversity policy and the significant actions put in place by the MTE: “It is vital that we succeed, together, in our energy transition for a better quality of life in the Principality, an economic development compatible with the planetary limits and a responsible inheritance to our children.”

Finally, Annabelle Jaeger-Seydoux recalled the objectives of the MTE and said: “We must accelerate the potentials and, for that, the digital and the Interministerial Delegation for the Digital Transition, with which we work in close association, will help us. digital and energetic transitions are convergent.”
